Gy Saxons 2 Yara 7
 AFC Trawl 4 OWKN 3
 Fresh 7 Blaine 2
GRS 3 BBS Couriers 9
 

First win for Yara and new manager Alex Peacock.

Saxons prop up the table again, but with a vastly improving goal difference.

OWKN was playing their first game of futsal on a full size court, a vastly different game to the smaller Novartis pitch. Trawl or a good outside bet to win league, they move the ball about quickly and use the full court. At 3-1 they looked to be running away with the game, OWKN stayed with them, and clawed back to 4-3. If they are to win title Trawl need to finish games like this off, not allow them back into the game.

Highlight of the game John Mawer (OWKN keeper) creating second team goal from a corner for his team started on opposite side of the court. 

Blaine got off to a great start and went 2-1 in-front.  At this stage they looked capable of causing a shock result, and had an incredible Blaine back flick go in then the whole game might have changed.

It was not to be, as so often happens once  the result changes to 3-2 Fresh and opposition start chasing game, it can cost more goals than it reaps.

Craig Norman big difference between teams.

BBS fielded probably the strongest team I have seen in Wednesday League, the majority of the players have played for Grimsby in the FA National League.

GRS matched them in outfield but unfortunately Gav' Broughton had a game to forget in goal.

Star performance John Highton GRS.
